Bath repair in Wickhampton without replacing anything

We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We’re frequently asked to fix an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, in pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Wickhampton and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repair or replace: which is better?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Questions from Wickhampton
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you work in Wickhampton?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Wickhampton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Wickhampton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow two to three hours for most chips, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
When to call us in Wickhampton
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A chipped rim or side
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
What your quote should include
- How to care for the finish
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if they find more damage
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire bath
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
